MRF PAC Gears Up to Support
Biker-Friendly Candidates

​

​​​

In just a little over a year, voters across the country will head to the polls for the 2026 midterm elections. While it may seem far off, the Motorcycle Riders Foundation (MRF) and the MRF Political Action Committee (PAC) are already preparing for this critical election cycle.

 

The MRF PAC, while a separate entity from the MRF, is affiliated and plays a vital role in advancing the priorities of motorcyclists in Washington, D.C. Through donations from riders and supporters, the MRF PAC works to elect and support candidates, regardless of party, who stand up for the rights and freedoms of America’s motorcyclists.

 

As a bipartisan organization, the MRF PAC’s guiding principle is simple:

We support those who support motorcyclists

To ensure that candidates truly share our values, the MRF PAC has developed a candidate questionnaire used to screen individuals seeking elected office. This tool helps identify those who understand and are committed to issues important to the motorcycling community.

 

While the questionnaire includes ten key questions, here are a few examples of what candidates are asked to consider—each with a simple “Support” or “Oppose” checkbox:

Would you support or oppose legislation preserving the consumer’s ability to choose a vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine?

 

Would you support or oppose autonomous vehicle legislation ensuring motorcycles are part of all testing and development procedures—and that manufacturers disclose how their vehicles detect motorcycles?

Would you support or oppose legislation to end the practice of profiling motorcyclists through better education and training of law enforcement agencies?

 

Would you support or oppose legislation guaranteeing states the right to determine their own motorcycle safety equipment requirements, without interference from Congress or federal agencies?

 

These questions help ensure that those who receive MRF PAC support are genuinely aligned with the interests of riders nationwide, whether it’s defending consumer choice, promoting safety through awareness, or protecting states’ rights to set their own standards.

 

As the 2026 elections approach, the MRF PAC will continue to identify, support, and promote candidates who respect motorcyclists and our way of life.

 

One by one, in every continent and culture, motorcyclists are deciding to Ride with the Leaders™.
